Please refrain from posting lots of images. I used to answer messages on others' talk pages but I found out it makes following/referencing past conversations more trouble than it should be, so I will answer all messages here. Thanks.

Questionable username

I'm not sure if this would count as an unacceptable username. Could you look into it please? Thanks. J-Luigi (talk) 13:06, 18 December 2015 (EST)

Hmmm... I'm a bit on the fence about it, I'll ask for input from the other admins. --™ The 'Shroom 14:04, 18 December 2015 (EST)

MarioWiki:Everybody is equal

I'm wondering if we can create a project page claiming that every user, whether new or long-lasting, is treated equally amongst each other, and are just as valuable as one another. Drilly the Elfhog 02:43, 21 December 2015 (EST)

Hello! That's a very good principle, but I feel creating a specific page to mention it is not entirely necessary, given it's mentioned here, here, and it would classify as common sense as well. --™ The 'Shroom 10:59, 21 December 2015 (EST)

I see, as long as they mention something like "Administrators are not kings and queens, and can still be penalized in the same way as normal users should they ever violate the regulations.". Drilly the Elfhog 12:16, 21 December 2015 (EST)

RE:Uploads

Thanks! I try to help out wherever I can! I'm also occasionally finding duplicates and end up reusing assets while tagging the inferior images to be deleted. One such instance was Rainbow Note and File:Shrinking_Tiles.PNG. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) 18:59, 22 December 2015 (EST)

Deletion of Green Space (Mario Party 9) redirect

I remove all what's linking to this redirect. The only one remaining is from Toa 95's page, but I'm not allowed to remove it.--^(TALK) 17:59, 28 December 2015 (EST)

Perfect, thanks! --™ The 'Shroom 18:02, 28 December 2015 (EST)

The 'Shroom Images

I noticed you and a few other admins have been untagging images for deletion if they are used for The 'Shroom. I get that this decision is made to preserve older issues of The 'Shroom but I tag them for deletion because if you look at MediaWiki Categories, they appear as duplicates because they have been categorized as such, such as Category:Super Paper Mario Images and Category:Mario Kart DS Images for examples. I was hoping an admin would make minor changes to The 'Shroom articles that used the outdated image to use the more up-to-date image. This has mostly been occurring with PNGs that used to be GIFs or JPEGs. Should I instead just remove the categorization for the outdated images so they won't be thought of as accidental duplicates? --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) 21:39, 28 December 2015 (EST)

There's no harm in keeping the outdated images in the older issues. Yes, the best would be to remove other categories form such images so that they don't show up twice. Thanks for all the work, it's very valuable to our wiki! --™ The 'Shroom 22:44, 28 December 2015 (EST)

Thanks for clarifying and adopting my idea. The only harm I see with the older image is using up server storage space. It just felt awkward to have two similar image pages be existing at the same time or even showing up in the category. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) 00:19, 29 December 2015 (EST)

I believe server space is not an issue at the moment (though I could be wrong), so no need to worry about that now. If there are way too many images that fall in this scenario you can tag them with the Requested for Deletion template and I'll be sure to change the 'Shroom sections before deleting, but let's go with keeping both for the time being. --™ The 'Shroom 00:24, 29 December 2015 (EST)

Your signature

You didn't change the link in your signature yet; it still leads to User:Tucayo and User talk:Tucayo instead of you-know-what-they-should-be. I know Tucayo still redirects to Henry Tucayo Clay, but I'm just pointing it out. Drilly the Hedgehog 18:17, 29 December 2015 (EST)

It's not like it made any difference, as it still followed rule #2 on MarioWiki:Signature. --™ The 'Shroom 18:46, 29 December 2015 (EST)

Thanks!

I contacted Pi about that vandal, but you seem to have taken care of it before him. Thanks for blocking them and thanks for hiding that edit on my talk page! Hello, I'm Time Turner.

No problem, I'm glad to help! Pi probably had Recent Changes on Auto-refresh and was on another tab or AFK, it has happened to me. --™ The 'Shroom 23:35, 29 December 2015 (EST)

Other languages name

Salut ! I was editing the Lumacomète article, and I was wondering what's the wiki policy for the "Names in other languages" table if the article is named after an official non-English source. Should I add the French name in the table? Seems a bit redundant, but then again, why not? Cheers.
Banon (talk · edits) 14:01, 30 December 2015 (EST)

Salut! It's not explicitly stated but other articles do so, so sure, it should be added since it's still a foreign name. --™ The 'Shroom 14:04, 30 December 2015 (EST)

All right then. Thanks!
Banon (talk · edits) 14:08, 30 December 2015 (EST)

So I guess the reference itself should also be on the table, rather than in the introduction?
Banon (talk · edits) 14:13, 30 December 2015 (EST)

For this I see it better to have the reference on the introduction, as it's the first mention of the name in the main body of the article and would be more useful there. --™ The 'Shroom 14:15, 30 December 2015 (EST)

This is my opinion as well, actually. I looked through a few entries in here, and the reference location is pretty inconsistent. I'll edit those articles.
Banon (talk · edits) 14:22, 30 December 2015 (EST)

Ok, thanks! --™ The 'Shroom 14:24, 30 December 2015 (EST)

It seems that quite a few of these articles are actually named after translations of official Japanese names; however I can't always tell if it's a translation or a romanization. I know that the wiki policy is to use English names when the Japanese is loaning English words, but I don't speak Japanese. Do you think articles like Armored Stinger, Balloon Bridge, Bat (Donkey Kong), Beam Robota, etc. have proper titles?
Banon (talk · edits) 14:49, 30 December 2015 (EST)

I'm sorry, I can't give a proper answer on that :/ Maybe a post here could be answered by someone who speaks Japanese. --™ The 'Shroom 15:43, 30 December 2015 (EST)

I will. Thanks for your help!

Zombienom

Very sorry about that. I missinderstood, also I have not heard about Super Mario Flash before. I was also trying to explain to him that he indeed needs to wait four days before making an article. Anyways, my apologies. (talk|contribs) 23:44, 1 January 2016 (EST)

Don't worry about it! Thanks for explaining him about the four days :) --™ The 'Shroom 23:46, 1 January 2016 (EST)

Wow, that was fast.

While I was trying to undo vandal edits, you just came in to undo these edits.. Glad you just came in time, Tucayo! CSR 14:12, 2 January 2016 (EST)

Heh, I always keep an eye on Recent Changes to spot any vandalism right away. Good to know you were also ready to undo it :) --™ The 'Shroom 14:14, 2 January 2016 (EST)

Watch out, Tucayo. It seems vandal under your name has appeared. CSR 17:24, 2 January 2016 (EST)

Sounds like he's been on the wiki before. Golden Yoshi 17:27, 2 January 2016 (EST)

I think that vandal with numerous edits with inappropriate words is a same person. Yup, that's just an imbecile person ranting in this wiki. CSR 17:29, 2 January 2016 (EST)

Yup, just a random vandal sockpuppeting to evade his ban. --™ The 'Shroom 18:53, 2 January 2016 (EST)

This douche monkey is just too persistent; fun fact: he copied your name in leetspeak. I know I shouldn't make personal attacks, even to vandals, but he's just someone who wants to mess around on purpose, which only gets him into trouble by people like you, RandomYoshi, Walkazo, Lindsay, etc.. Also, consider doing a range block in case something is suspicious; I suggest going back and performing CheckUser on the previous blocked users.

@Csrspirit Also, Tucayo is an admin, so he has rollback powers, so of course he's supposed to be fast, since he does this with just one click. Drilly the Hedgehog 19:36, 2 January 2016 (EST)
